A young boy came to Sunday School late. His teacher
knew that he was usually very prompt and asked him if
anything was wrong.
The boy replied no, that he was going fishing but his
dad told him that he needed to go to church.
The teacher was very impressed and asked the boy if
his dad had explained to him why it was more important to
go to church than to go fishing.
The boy replied: "Yes he did. Dad said he didn't have
enough bait for both of us."

A little boy got lost at the YWCA and found himself in
the women's locker room. When he was spotted, the
room burst into shrieks, with ladies grabbing towels and
running for cover.
The little boy watched in amazement and then asked,
"What's the matter haven't you ever seen a little boy
before?"

An INTERNATIONAL BONEHEAD AWARD
AND a Darwin Award has been earned by
Dustin Brown,
19,
Morton,
Illinois
Knife-wielding punk bursts into library to
kill kids. A 75-year-old army vet took him down.
James Vernon, a 75-year-old veteran, took matters into his
own hands when he found himself face-to-face with a man who
was determined to shed some blood.
Vernon and 16 parents and children were in a conference room
at the Morton Public Library Tuesday when Dustin Brown, 19,
entered and declared he was going to kill some people,
according to the Pekin (Illinois) Daily Times.
Brown had more than one knife and Vernon knew he had to do
something fast to prevent a tragedy from happening.
The elderly vet stepped in between Brown and the others,
giving them a cue to leave the room.
Vernon then relied on his knife training from 50 years ago
to help him handle Brown.
“He actually ran into the room yelling, ‘I’m going to kill
some people!’ Vernon said.
Vernon said the knives Brown had looked like hunting knives
with fixed blades about five inches long.
“I tried to talk to him. I tried to settle him down,” Vernon
said. “I asked him if he was from Morton, did he go to high
school. I asked what his problem was. He said his life sucks.
That’s a quote.”
While talking to Brown, Vernon noticed he was right-handed
and expected he would strike with that hand first. Vernon
knew to block with his left hand.
Vernon was successful in stopping Brown from killing anyone
but he didn’t walk away without an injury. Brown slashed two
arteries and a tendon on Vernon’s left hand as he blocked
Brown’s knife.
Despite the injury, Vernon took down and subdued Brown until
the police arrived.
Brown was held on $800,000 bond on charges of attempted murder,
armed violence, aggravated battery to a person over 60 and
burglary.
Brown had been free on bond facing child pornography charges.

Re: How do I organize Chrome bookmarks?
Dear Webby
I want to organize my Chrome Bookmarks, and save them to
a camera chip. How do I do that?
Leona
Dear Leona
In the upper right corner of the browser toolbar, click the
Chrome menu (The three horizontal bars).
Click Bookmarks > Bookmark Manager.
Browse to the folder where you want to alphabetize your
bookmarks.
Above your bookmarks, click Organize.
Click Reorder by Title. Now when you open the Chrome menu
and click Bookmarks, you’ll see your bookmarks listed in
alphabetical order.
To create a bookmark folder
In the upper right corner of the browser toolbar, click the
Chrome menu.
Click Bookmarks > Bookmark Manager.
On the left side of the page, click the Folders drop-down arrow.
Click Add Folder, then name your folder.
Drag any bookmarks into your folder.
Shift-click to pick more than one item.
To Export bookmarks, open the Bookmarks manager as above.
Select a folder on the left
Clik on Organize on top
At the bottom of that you see: Export bookmarks.
That exports the selected folder, for example your Prayers
folder, but not your hubby's warm-up bookmarks folder.
Just export the folders you want, and ignore the rest.
Have FUN!

Removing Bacon in One Piece
I don't know how many times I've tried different ways to
get one piece of bacon out of the package and into the pan
flat, not ripped not torn but flat. Work a fork under one
side or the other of the bottom piece of bacon in the
package, you then begin to roll the fork into the direction
of the other end of the piece of bacon. Effectively, you
are rolling up a piece of bacon onto the fork. When you put
it in the pan, you place edge side down. Unroll it into the
pan off the fork.

"Why don't you just leave him then?" asked her friend.
